Rumor: Tesla Looking into Slovakia Production Site

Last week, there has been rumors from Slovak Spectator that Tesla Motors is looking into a new production facility in Slovakia. Slovakia already has several automobile production facilities for VW, Kia, and Peugeot. This would bolster Telsa’s European production abilities. They currently have a facility in Tilburg, Netherlands but the facilities is not have full production capabilities. This factory is used more so for final assembly and a distribution hub.

If Tesla does move forward with this, it shows a large commitment to there products in the European and World market. Tesla has not given an official statement on this yet. Elon Musk has previously mentioned Tesla will not build anything in Europe until 160,000 vehicles have been sold in Europe.
